Will ripping into his son as well as the defensive side of the Minnesota Vikings loss, he also added in a shot at Vikings head coach Kevin O’Connell, saying, “KOC can do them with ya because he got out-coached”
Undoubtedly, the Vikings were utterly destroyed against the Detroit Lions on Sunday, as the game wasn’t even close. However, the team will play the Los Angeles Rams on the road in the playoffs, which many fans consider a guaranteed win.
